Arrival Story:
Mom was lonely for dogs, so she and dad sat down and took some tests to see what dog breed was best. Border Collie was high on the list for both, and dad had always wanted a Border Collie. His idea was to get TWO dogs, then they could keep each other company and burn off excess energy playing with each other. After calling around and asking for a few weeks, the local vet suggested a rancher with "the best border collies" he'd ever seen. We called her, and she just happened to have a 4 week old litter.. all boys. We went to see them, and the only two that were left were Apollo and Ares. We both fell in love with them instantly.. it was so hard to wait for the two weeks before we could bring them home. They were so tiny.. they both fit on mom's lap on the drive home.

Bio:
Apollo is the "big brother" of the two.. always bossing Ares around. Much more confident than his brother, he's also the instigator when it comes to things like barking at the neighborhood annoyances.. like the trash truck and those pesky school buses.
